J.K. Rowling with Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint at the London premiere of the Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 (the final movie) in 2011.

*While *Harry Potter *was loved by readers of all ages, it was for the young adult audience. This new book--expected later this year--will be her first adult-focused novel. It's no surprise that the details--title, release date, synopsis--are being kept hush-hush for now because, well, it's a really big deal. Rowling's *Potter *series broke sales records around the globe. Because of her following alone, this book is pretty much guaranteed to be a best-seller.

"Although I've enjoyed writing it every bit as much, my next book will be very different to the Harry Potter series," Rowling said in a statement released by publisher Little, Brown. "The freedom to explore new territory is a gift that Harry's success has brought me."

One lingering rumor is that the book will be a crime novel set in Scotland. And while I can't say that I'm a big fan of that particular genre, I think I'll be reading her book just because it's J.K. Friggin' Rowling, you know?

What about YOU? I want to know... Will you read J.K. Rowling's book regardless of the topic? Or will you wait to see what it's about, *then *decide if you'll check it out. And when a new book comes out that you MUST HAVE, how do you get your hands on it: buy the actual book, download it to a reader, get it from the library or something else?
